Is it just me, or are you folks running Wayland with no issues? I’ve even forgotten I was on Wayland until I looked at the settings the other day. I have all AMD, btw. I have zero issues so far. Anyone else?
I wouldn’t say 0 issues as I have occasional clipboard issues with XWayland apps or KWin crashing results in loss of work. I also find my HP Anyware PCoIP performance to be slightly downgraded compared to X11.
However, the upsides, such as multi-refresh rate and what feels like smoother performance on my RX 6900 XT (home, Tuxedo OS) and Vega 56 (office, KDE Neon) far outweigh it.
I would say it’s mostly smooth except for a few annoyances like lots of apps not displaying icons correctly in taskbar or taskswitcher but a standard Wayland icon.
AMD cpu, nvidia gpu, running tuxedo os. i’ve had one issue and it was warthunder and enlisted not capturing the cursor correctly. this is caused by those games supporting linux natively but not having wayland support yet. no other games have done this for me so far.
yup. ever since the explicit sync update from nvidia i’ve had zero problems on wayland.
I’ve been running Plasma 6 + Wayland since the packages went live in the Arch repos and have had zero issues. I was already running Wayland sessions in Plasma 5.2x with only a few minor annoyances. On AMD hardware.
I am not having issues at all with Wayland, even game on it. Using a fairly new Nvidia card, after version 555.x was released, Wayland no longer has any flickering like visuals for me.
Not a single issue with Intel + Wayland + Fedora + KDE.
Certainly not, sadly.
Yes.
The only issues I had were due to fractional scaling (blurry apps, especially Electron based ones; and windows opening or moving to weird edges, where I can’t move them anymore).
But those were already a few months or a year ago, and since I switched from Gnome to KDE 6, I have zero issues, neither on my laptop (integrated on CPU), nor on my desktop with an AMD GPU.
And even over a year, almost two, ago, Wayland has been very smooth for me. I used Gnome for most of the time, which has always been very solid with Wayland. KDE has been a bit more janky in the past, but nowadays, Wayland feels way smoother and polished than X11 for me.
I had severe issues when running an NVIDIA card, but after trading that in for AMD I’ve only had minor issues. Nothing major, and certainly nothing worth losing good fractional scaling to avoid.
Nvidia wayland. no issues.
Yep, Me
Yep. All AMD. No issues.
Been using it exclusively for a couple years on all AMD. Not zero issues, but issues I’ve had are minor.
